A poorly behaving BPF scheduler can trigger hard lockup. For example, on a
large system with many tasks pinned to different subsets of CPUs, if the BPF
scheduler puts all tasks in a single DSQ and lets all CPUs at it, the DSQ lock
can be contended to the point where hardlockup triggers. Unfortunately,
hardlockup can be the first signal out of such situations, thus requiring
hardlockup handling.
Hook scx_hardlockup() into the hardlockup detector to try kicking out the
current scheduler in an attempt to recover the system to a good state. The
handling strategy can delay watchdog taking its own action by one polling
period; however, given that the only remediation for hardlockup is crash, this
is likely an acceptable trade-off.
v2: Add missing dummy scx_hardlockup() definition for
!CONFIG_SCHED_CLASS_EXT (kernel test bot).

Bypass mode routes tasks through fallback dispatch queues. Originally a single
global DSQ, b7b3b2dbae73 ("sched_ext: Split the global DSQ per NUMA node")
changed this to per-node DSQs to resolve NUMA-related livelocks.
Dan Schatzberg found per-node DSQs can still livelock when many threads are
pinned to different small CPU subsets: each CPU must scan many incompatible
tasks to find runnable ones, causing severe contention with high CPU counts.
Switch to per-CPU bypass DSQs. Each task queues on its current CPU. Default
idle CPU selection and direct dispatch handle most cases well.
This introduces a failure mode when tasks concentrate on one CPU in
over-saturated systems. If the BPF scheduler severely skews placement before
triggering bypass, that CPU's queue may be too long to drain, causing RCU
stalls. A load balancer in a future patch will address this. The bypass DSQ is
separate from local DSQ to enable load balancing: local DSQs use rq locks,
preventing efficient scanning and transfer across CPUs, especially problematic
when systems are already contended.
v2: Clarified why bypass DSQ is separate from local DSQ (Andrea Righi).

There have been reported cases of bypass mode not making forward progress fast
enough. The 20ms default slice is unnecessarily long for bypass mode where the
primary goal is ensuring all tasks can make forward progress.
Introduce SCX_SLICE_BYPASS set to 5ms and make the scheduler automatically
switch to it when entering bypass mode. Also make the bypass slice value
tunable through the slice_bypass_us module parameter (adjustable between 100us
and 100ms) to make it easier to test whether slice durations are a factor in
problem cases.
v3: Use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE for scx_slice_dfl access (Dan).
v2: Removed slice_dfl_us module parameter. Fixed typos (Andrea).

The fw_attributes_class provides a much cleaner interface to all of the
attributes introduced to asus-wmi. This patch moves all of these extra
attributes over to fw_attributes_class, and shifts the bulk of these
definitions to a new kernel module to reduce the clutter of asus-wmi
with the intention of deprecating the asus-wmi attributes in future.
The work applies only to WMI methods which don't have a clearly defined
place within the sysfs and as a result ended up lumped together in
/sys/devices/platform/asus-nb-wmi/ with no standard API.
Where possible the fw attrs now implement defaults, min, max, scalar,
choices, etc. As en example dgpu_disable becomes:
/sys/class/firmware-attributes/asus-armoury/attributes/dgpu_disable/
├── current_value
├── display_name
├── possible_values
└── type
as do other attributes.

The generic inode_permission() routine does work which is known to be of
no significance for lookup. There are checks for MAY_WRITE, while the
requested permission is MAY_EXEC. Additionally devcgroup_inode_permission()
is called to check for devices, but it is an invariant the inode is a
directory.
Absent a ->permission func, execution lands in generic_permission()
which checks upfront if the requested permission is granted for
everyone.
We can elide the branches which are guaranteed to be false and cut
straight to the check if everyone happens to be allowed MAY_EXEC on the
inode (which holds true most of the time).
Moreover, filesystems which provide their own ->permission routine can
take advantage of the optimization by setting the IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC
flag on their inodes, which they can legitimately do if their MAY_EXEC
handling matches generic_permission().
As a simple benchmark, as part of compilation gcc issues access(2) on
numerous long paths, for example /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12/crtendS.o
Issuing access(2) on it in a loop on ext4 on Sapphire Rapids (ops/s):
before: 3797556
after: 3987789 (+5%)
Note: this depends on the not-yet-landed ext4 patch to mark inodes with
cache_no_acl()

Pending writebacks must be accounted for to determine when all requests
have completed and writeback on the folio should be ended. Currently
this is done by atomically incrementing ifs->write_bytes_pending for
every range to be written back.
Instead, the number of atomic operations can be minimized by setting
ifs->write_bytes_pending to the folio size, internally tracking how many
bytes are written back asynchronously, and then after sending off all
the requests, decrementing ifs->write_bytes_pending by the number of
bytes not written back asynchronously. Now, for N ranges written back,
only N + 2 atomic operations are required instead of 2N + 2.

Note that this also allows userland to request a FL_DELEG type lease on

Currently, CQs without a completion function are assigned the
mlx5_add_cq_to_tasklet function by default. This is problematic since
only user CQs created through the mlx5_ib driver are intended to use
this function.
Additionally, all CQs that will use doorbells instead of polling for
completions must call mlx5_cq_arm. However, the default CQ creation flow
leaves a valid value in the CQ's arm_db field, allowing FW to send
interrupts to polling-only CQs in certain corner cases.
These two factors would allow a polling-only kernel CQ to be triggered
by an EQ interrupt and call a completion function intended only for user
CQs, causing a null pointer exception.
Some areas in the driver have prevented this issue with one-off fixes
but did not address the root cause.
This patch fixes the described issue by adding defaults to the create CQ
flow. It adds a default dummy completion function to protect against
null pointer exceptions, and it sets an invalid command sequence number
by default in kernel CQs to prevent the FW from sending an interrupt to
the CQ until it is armed. User CQs are responsible for their own
initialization values.
Callers of mlx5_core_create_cq are responsible for changing the
completion function and arming the CQ per their needs.

Gabriel reported that the dl_server doesn't stop as expected.
The problem was found to be the fact that idle time and fair runtime are
treated equally. Both will count towards dl_server runtime and push the
activation forwards when it is in the zero-laxity wait state.
Notably:
dl_server_update_idle()
update_curr_dl_se()
if (dl_defer && dl_throttled && dl_runtime_exceeded())
hrtimer_try_to_cancel(); // stop timer
replenish_dl_new_period()
deadline = now + dl_deadline; // fwd period
runtime = dl_runtime;
start_dl_timer(); // restart timer
And while we do want idle time accounted towards the *current* activation of
the dl_server -- after all, a fair task could've ran if we had any -- we don't
necessarily want idle time to cause or push forward an activation.
Introduce dl_defer_idle to make this distinction. It will be set once idle time
pushed the activation forward, once set idle time will only be allowed to
consume any runtime but not push the activation. This will then cause
dl_server_timer() to fire, which will stop the dl_server.
Any non-idle time accounting during this phase will clear dl_defer_idle, so
only a full period of idle will cause the dl_server to stop.

This should avoid *some* cache misses.
Successful path lookup is guaranteed to load at least ->i_mode,
->i_opflags and ->i_acl. At the same time the common case will avoid

struct inode is not guaranteed to have any particular alignment, notably
ext4 has it only aligned to 8 bytes meaning nearby fields might happen

short unsigned int i_opflags; /* 2 2 */
kuid_t i_uid; /* 4 4 */
kgid_t i_gid; /* 8 4 */
unsigned int i_flags; /* 12 4 */
struct posix_acl * i_acl; /* 16 8 */
struct posix_acl * i_default_acl; /* 24 8 */
->i_acl is unnecessarily separated by 8 bytes from the other fields.
With struct inode being offset 48 bytes into the cacheline this means an
avoidable miss. Note it will still be there for the 56 byte case.
New layout:
umode_t i_mode; /* 0 2 */
short unsigned int i_opflags; /* 2 2 */
unsigned int i_flags; /* 4 4 */
struct posix_acl * i_acl; /* 8 8 */
struct posix_acl * i_default_acl; /* 16 8 */
kuid_t i_uid; /* 24 4 */
kgid_t i_gid; /* 28 4 */
I verified with pahole there are no size or hole changes.
This is stopgap until someone(tm) sanitizes the layout in the first
place, allocation methods aside.

Initial namespaces don't modify their reference count anymore.
They remain fixed at one so drop the custom refcount initializations.

Now that we changed the generic reference counting mechanism for all
namespaces to never manipulate reference counts of initial namespaces we
can drop the special handling for pid namespaces.

We want ns_common.h to possibly include nstree structures but not the

In the current implementation, usbnet uses a fixed tx_qlen of:
USB2: 60 * 1518 bytes = 91.08 KB
USB3: 60 * 5 * 1518 bytes = 454.80 KB
Such large transmit queues can be problematic, especially for cellular
modems. For example, with a typical celluar link speed of 10 Mbit/s, a
fully occupied USB3 transmit queue results in:
454.80 KB / (10 Mbit/s / 8 bit/byte) = 363.84 ms
of additional latency.
This patch adds support for Byte Queue Limits (BQL) [1] to dynamically
manage the transmit queue size and reduce latency without sacrificing
throughput.
Testing was performed on various devices using the usbnet driver for
packet transmission:
- DELOCK 66045: USB3 to 2.5 GbE adapter (ax88179_178a)
- DELOCK 61969: USB2 to 1 GbE adapter (asix)
- Quectel RM520: 5G modem (qmi_wwan)
- USB2 Android tethering (cdc_ncm)
No performance degradation was observed for iperf3 TCP or UDP traffic,
while latency for a prioritized ping application was significantly
reduced. For example, using the USB3 to 2.5 GbE adapter, which was fully
utilized by iperf3 UDP traffic, the prioritized ping was improved from
1.6 ms to 0.6 ms. With the same setup but with a 100 Mbit/s Ethernet
connection, the prioritized ping was improved from 35 ms to 5 ms.
